The cw40 is my 6th Kahr , I paid $288. I love my cw9 and cw45. The cw45 is the best carry 45 on the market. It's shoots better and kicks less than the p45 I paid over $600 for. Kahr makes guns that sell at HK prices. They shoot well and are light, I carry a Glock 26, a HK ups compact 9mm. But 75 percent of the time is a Kahr CW. Some complain about the trigger, I like it a lot, perfect trigger for a carry gun, the trigger is the best thing about it.

I received the CW-40 ten days after placing my order. I went to the range that day and with the first shot, my mag dropped out. I tried another mag but it did not help. The most shots I could get off before mag came out was seven. I contacted Kahr and they made arrangements for me to send it back to them at no cost to me. I got the gun back a week later with problems fixed. It now works great. Thanks to Buds for quick service and a great price and thanks to Kahr for standing behind their product and fixing the problem in a quick and courteous manner.

Buds service was impeccable as always but the weapon itself is only ok. First day at the range I fired around 200 rounds of various ammo, from FMJ to JHP and no malfunctions however on the second trip the trigger spring and trigger bar snapped, Kahrs customer service was great and they repaired it at no charge, but I would still save up a little more and go with a higher quality Kahr K40 as this one is the extreme budget gun. In the end I guess you get what you pay for.

Got my khar cw40, pistol is high quality and is so slim and tiny perfect for conceal carry. came with 1 6rd magazine, trigger lock,manual in a cardboard box.
Shot 200rds without a single malfuntion 100rd FMJ and the other 100rd JHP. The only negative thing i have to say about this pistol is the rear sight, its a bar sight or an i sight. I dont know how to use them and i couldnt hit a thing not even close to my target, but thats my fault not the guns. The manual does not tell you how to use the sights properly and ive been searching online and still no luck in how sight picture should look like with those weird sights. the cw40 its beautifully crafted and feels great , To be honest the recoil is not bad coming from a 40sw tiny pistol. Very reliable. I recommend it to anybody as a ccw handgun. The trigger is long but very smooth, nothing compared to my keltec P11 wich is hard and hurts your finger when you pull the trigger. 4 stars because khar did not include instructions in how to use sights for this old school gunner.

fantastic little ccw peice. love the feel and look. easy to acquire sights. the mag release is a little stiff at first and so is the slide lock. so far the only complaint i have is the single magazine it ships with.
bud's transaction was smooth. painless. the layaway program is great. i am thoroughly impressed with thier online transactions.
range time. first outing. 100 rounds. white box and federal. no hiccups. also did 5 rounds of federal HST. second outing no hiccups either. 100 rounds of winchester white box and 5 more hollow points. 15 yards was a breeze. ran a few quick acquisition drills at 3 and 5 yards. very easy to do follow ups and rapidly acquire the sights.
magazine capacity isn't a issue. i am a huge fan of the very positive ejection of the mag. if you are a fan of DAO, this trigger really doesn't need to be staged. its smooth enough to be pulled staight through. almost as smooth as a sig p250. that has my favorite DAO trigger. this is a very close second.
can recommend it. great gun for ccw duty and open carry. so all in all, grab a few spare mags from here and let her rip.
will update when i reach the 500 round mark.

New out of the box, total junk. I used 8 different types of factory ammo, trying to get the pistol to work properly. Turns out the frame was broken. Sent back to KAHR, they would NOT fix under warranty. Claimed I used bad ammunition, total garbage.
After several calls arguing that the pistol was bad out of the box, they refused to honor the warranty.
Last KAHR I will ever own, be forewarned, they will not honor a warranty.
